The Morning Rant
This is quite a righteous rant from last time:
111 Ever notice the only place journalists ask about how the athletes feel representing is the United States?I wish I had written this myself. The phenomenon is right in front of my face the whole time and it never occurred to me to question it. Namely, why do our journalists always seem to ask only *our* athletes how they feel about representing their country? I mean, 95 times out of 100 the answer is going to be something like "big damn proud!" so, really, what's the point? I think the answer is that the journalists, being progressive scum, are actually disguising the question that they're really asking, which is: "How do you feel about representing the USA, a fascist country full of racists, sexists, and white supremacist, and certainly one of the worst countries in the history of the entire world?" Or, perhaps: "How DARE you feel proud to represent the USA, a fascist country full of racists, sexists, and white supremacists, and certainly one of the worst countries in the history of the entire world?" The progressive scum reporters are just telling you who they are. They don't understand patriotism. They don't understand people being proud of the achievements of America. Because they've been taught to hate America, so they do. And I've noticed that sports reporters seem to be much more virulently infected by the 'woke' virus than your average national reporter. I'm not sure, maybe it's the Delta variant (which is primarily found in ESPN newsrooms) or something similar. A large number of our Olympic athletes are motivated by religious faith, but the reporters never ask them about that, either. Because religion confuses and frightens them. So when, for example, Olympic gold medalist Sydney McLaughlin says something like this:
Nobody ever asks the Shoa Jing-Wongs of the world how they feel about social credit systems, the racially pure, male-controlled Chinese politburo, the jailing of sodomites, the one-child policy that leads families into getting back-alley sonograms to make sure their fetus has a penis, the dumping of female babies into the Yellow River, the invasion of Taiwan, the takeover of Hong Kong, the subjugation of Tibet, reprogramming of Muslims in slave-labor camps, the execution of drug dealers, the state production of bio weapons, the banning of social media posts, the every-f*cking-example of every-f*cking-unfair-totalitarian-oppression that America is accused of, but not actually guilty of.
Ever notice that?

“I no longer run for self recognition, but to reflect His perfect will that is already set in stone. I don’t deserve anything. But by grace, through faith, Jesus has given me everything. Records come and go. The glory of God is eternal. Thank you Father.”...the reporters don't know how to deal with it. It most likely makes them feel all weird and icky inside. They'll hang all over word that proceedeth from the mouth of Megan Rapinoe, but McLaughlin gets consigned to the memory hole. Sports reporting does nothing but emphasize how isolated coastal elites are in their insular little bubble. I mean, if you're a national reporter, you probably should take some times to understand the national audience you're presuming to speaking to. "Listen up, you hayseeds, and I'll educate you" is probably not a winning strategy.

Wednesday Who Dis: Charlie Weber had a part in the later (post-2000) seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer with Canadian-born actress Mercedes McNab, who had a recurring guest role. There's no record in imdb of Ms. McNab doing anything past 2011, so perhaps she's retired from acting.

Dunno if he's still alive, but yes, Sean's younger brother. I think I have the name right. He did a Bond knockoff called Operation Kid Brother, or something like that.
Daniela, of course, played Tatiana Romanova in From Russia With Love. but that's the only film I know about with Sean's brother. (Going from memory here.)

I looked it up afterward. You're right. And I did not know that Daniela was in the flick with Neil. Good casting/marketing! Neil was almost a good-looking (says I from a straight male perspective) as the young Sean. I have no idea if he was anywhere as convincing an actor, though.

The white trash boy on the women's soccer team, the mentally ill monster throwing shotput, the bobblehead track star all get commercials, interviews or little vignettes, despite losing thier sports, but the two (African American) females who won gold in wrestling and hurdles get nothing after they won and expressed thier love for God and for the USA.
The media needs to be cleaned out in this country, as they addres nothing but propagandist for those who hates the US.

Great. I will just assume that this is coming soon a front lawn near me.
A couple weeks ago, my lawn work was interrupted when I got swarmed by wasps and stung a bunch of times. Last week I had to cut down weeds that I am pretty sure were some kind of atomic weed monsters. This week it'll probably be those.

That's because they have to identify with the struggle and oppression of multi-millionaire black athletes in the worst country in the world and in arenas in which they subconsciously realize that their ideology will destroy the very sports they love as eventually winning and meritocracy will be banned as the culture devolves into televised love-in pedophile orgies and participation trophies.

I like a good deal of it, at least the bad guys could be bad guys for the most part...well, up til the end anyway.

========
The way Gunn builds an ensemble picture ends up feeling like a random series of events that coincidentally ends up at a conclusion. Everyone seems to be in their own little story with nothing but the barest of plot mechanics to connect them to anything else. He doesn't provide these stories with a core, a point. Instead it's just his imagination running wild in different directions. There's a lot of entertaining stuff, but the movie ends up feeling like it's stopping and starting all over the place because there's no effort to tie everything together as one cohesive story.
There are others who disagree with me and just want to laugh every five minutes and end with a host of rats eating a giant space starfish. That's fine. We all have different tastes.

I doubt it's sexual inadequacy, specifically, except insofar as sexuality is "a thing." These people are adequate for nothing. And they hate the world for that reason. In any other time or place, these people would perish before aging up and joining Antifa. Starvation, abandonment, drug abuse, whatever. Something would have gotten them. But in our society, these people survive to adulthood.

They were infected with it much earlier than the average national reporter as well. I think this is because the nature of sports journalism is based on what the reporter, who is an observer of sports and not a participant, thinks about what they see. This lends itself to these people naturally giving their opinion on things, which very quickly led to them giving their opinion on politics. As someone who grew up reading NYC newspapers, Mike Lupica was the first insufferable sportswriter that exhibited this disease. At heart, these people want to move to the front page of the paper instead of the back page, so more and more of them followed his lead.
Thank goodness I don't watch or read about sports anymore. I do, however, want to get that book about the '72 Olympic US basketball team that got cheated out of a gold medal by corrupt IOC officials and the USSR.

Nuclear testing in the 1950s was evidence of how horrible the US Government was, they marched military troops right out into the desert and set off bombs! They were exposed to radiation!
They are either unaware or purposefully ignore that it was the Communists or Soviets that drove this research, for the most part. And the Soviets didn't care one iota about killing troops during "testing". A half truth is still a full lie.

I think both can be true. Its why I don't love Marvel's Avengers as a movie but as an event. I think Squad is the same, the ride is fun and only if you sit and contemplate at the end what happened do you feel empty. But if you stop at "It had aspects that were a rush!", well, you got what you got out of it.
And lol to Will Smith wanting nothing to do with this and him being essentially replaced in the role with a different black actor basically playing the same part (minus being a full dick to his daughter).

Connery's Bond used sexuality like he used anything else, as a tool to get what he needed. For the first three movies, I never got the sense that he actually enjoyed sex at all.

I love (real) Americans. Our official government and structure not so much anymore. To the point that I often see the flag and our national symbols as more appropriated by an occupying government than as our actual, true national symbols.
This may (hopefully) change, but right now I'm in the "cooling off" period of a relationship with my country.

It's more like a "Zeno Effect" or the Bald Man paradox: How many hairs can a man have on his head and be "bald". Or, alternatively, when does a man lose that last hair that makes him "bald".
Alex Jones often seemed to be more an embarrassment to real conversation than a contributor. And so, with the ideas being nascent, nobody would argue that *he* had a *right* to appear on these platforms.
It's the sum total of culling what is "extreme" and creating the new "extremes" which makes it more of a mass effect. Once you've drawn the line, then Alex Jones isn't the nearest to it in the window, somebody else is.
This is why I don't believe that Slippery Slope is such a fallacy when you're talking about human analog understanding. It remains a logical fallacy, in the sense of logical fallacies. Because we have gone x far it doesn't make x + h inevitable.
But people have the tendency to act as if "fallacy" is a shoddy argument. (And, in many cases it is.)

it wouldn't be inveitable on the individual level, except when you are talking about cultural/civilizational issues and then realize human behavior, in the aggregate, follows a plottable course, within ranges of confidence. For example, once you get communism, you get mega deaths. It doesn't work well enough on the micro level, but its a reasonable and useful tool on the macro level. The arguments against the slippery slope are, i say, arguments against learning from history, and arguments against experience. And yes. I realize I'm inflaming the hemorrhoids of the certain poet philosophers herein.

Not only that but the human data points are also *advocates* of *"progress"* toward their goals.
When around SSM time they started saying Black = women = gay rights, I had to ask and what's next to equal gays? That was "slippery slope".
But the entire argument that there is just a "progression of civil rights expansion" to civil rights concerns IS a "slope model". It suggested that you "really aren't for race and ethnic rights" if you're not for women being seen as undifferentiable from men", so it invoked a model of a "cause" that required you to be for x + h, to claim that you were really pro-x. (The equation of the sexes has been a *disaster*, btw).

But kinda hard to believe that many already have it, since there is a lot of resistance, including in the Dem union brigades. -- plus if they had it (both shots) six months ago, it is probably waning ... they need more shots, BigPharma needs several more billion in subsidy ... every six months forever.

Utopianism is at the core of critical theory. Most of the people out doing the PR work don't bother with that aspect, but the entire premise is incremental change (find a target, isolate it, destroy it, reset the goalposts, repeat) until all oppression is eliminated and the world becomes fundamentally different and perfect.
And this means, by the way, that some people will have to be eliminated. It always does. Whites can't be changed according to a lot of CRT boosters. What does that imply, then, as the solution?

I really don't get that. Tastes and preferences are things. If you don't like something, you don't like it. I don't get why people like well-done steaks, but I'm not going to give them grief about it. Their preferences are theirs.

don't think they think Whites can be changed. There will never be an
end to the struggle. I admit I haven't read the canon, but I have heard
the talking points and I have never heard mention of the Utopia.
And you prolly won't, but it's implied in their cockeyed worldview. I can't stand the constant bleating of progtards who say stuff like "be better." The same thing could be said back at them. It's all ego with them all the time. That plus control-freak.

However, because i knew something of japanese baseball they befriended me and opened up a bit. Talking of food, i indicated that i had some distain for raw fish. They LOL'd and said that the large plate of square chunks of hardened spoiled milk was far far more horrifying than anything that ever came out of the sea. Fun guys.

I think the Bible is specifically talking about progs when it says that the imagination is evil.
Progs worship their own arena of "godhood" which is strictly the cloud world of their imagination. Then this imagination must be brought out into the world, so that people can see what a genius you are.

Well because everything is bullshit, they made up the goal of needing 70 plus pct of the population fully vaccinated, they are not going to get anywhere close to that without also vaccinating children.
So now they are conflating the number of doses administered, which stands at approx. 350M and vaccinations, which take two doses for all but the JandJ vaccine.
Again, everything is bullshit.

And so they must be moved out of the way if "progress" is to be had.
This is why socialism will never be "implemented right", because
1. It arguably *can't* be.
2. It doesn't fit their vision.
3. The main advocates are wrapped up in their own imaginations more than seeing how well "the plan" becomes reality.
#3 can also be a reason for #1.
